Lekvattnet, translated into German, means playing water, was settled by the Finns around the 16th century, which is why many old farmsteads and neighbourhoods still have Finnish names. The large forests around Lekvattnet are still called "Finnskogen" and the Finnskogscentrum in Lekvattnet is the old school and serves as a museum where many things from that time are kept and shown. The Finnskogcentrum is used for many seminars and events about the settlement by the Finns.There are three old Finn settlements here in Lekvattnet, most of which have been preserved as they were once farmed. Ritamäki is a mountain hut that was still in use in the old way until 1975.Kvarntorp is an old water-powered mill where grain used to be ground into flour and is now used as a restaurant serving old Finnish dishes.And then there is Kamenkyna, where many old houses, barns and huts from the area have been brought together, a kind of open-air museum, the main house, a so-called Rökstuga, is used as a restaurant where the old dish "Muti and Flesk" is served, here at Kamenkyna, the unfortunately felled largest spruce tree in Northern Europe is on display, it was 48 metres high and had a diameter of 85 cm 1 metre above the ground.
